I knew the second that Stephanie and Phil said the words “West Point” that their wedding would be fantastic. Phil is a member of the renowned West Point military band, and if anyone knows how to enjoy themselves, it’s the military and musicians. They are both unbelievably sweet. Stephanie is a school-teacher, so instead of a limo we got to ride around in a bumpy school-bus with a driver who was either insane or far too used to G-force testing. The reception hall was beautiful and so was the day.
But the best part of the wedding was their first dance. They began to “Unchained Melody,” beautiful, touching, precisely what someone might expect. And then … SCRAAAAAAATCH! went the recording, and the entire wedding party broke into “Thriller”! The crowd, as you may imagine, went nuts.

Dennis Pike - These are great. I shot a wedding at West Point about 2 months ago. I find that you and I are shooting in the same places more and more, the coolest part is our photos look COMPLETELY different. Although I’m sure skill has a little something to do with that
Steve Elmer - The groups shot of the Thriller Dance, is by far my favourite shot of the week!
